This was … wild. The author does a great job of making you feel just as crazy as the MC in the beginning. I just don’t think a male author could accurately write about the fears of women who have been preyed upon their entire lives. I felt the whole time it would be better as a movie. There wasn’t much “horror” at all, though there were so many twists and turns it became hard to keep track of who the target was.
